Another happy Pontus II owner here. I agree with the review, although I don't use cans, only speakers. The review makes me want to try balanced cables from the Denafrips to my pre. Even though the pre goes to my amp via unbalanced cables, maybe it will give me more of what the review talks about.
FWIW, I tried a Schitt Gungnir before the Pontus II. I only had it for a day. The relay clicking and cutting off of the very first note or two of individual tracks drive me nuts. I took the restocking hit and returned it. If the Yggy does the same thing, consider how you will use it. If you listen only to complete albums, you're good. But if you like to mix tracks on playlists, be prepared for lots of clicks and missing the first note or two of most tracks.
